Akasaka Palace was built between 1899 and 1909. It is also the first asset to be designated a national treasure after the Meiji Restoration. The Palace is as grand as Peter Hof, Hof burg, or Versailles. It is an ornate neo-baroque style building that used to serve as the primary residence for the crown prince. After World War 2, however, the building took on a new role as a state house for foreign dignitaries visiting Japan. The awe inspiring palace is a must see for anyone visiting Tokyo as it offers a glimpse into the once regal nature of the country during its days of empire. Whether you love history, or just love architecture, it should be a mandatory stop.
